With our support, award-winning artist Stacy Innerst illustrated Jared Todd, a 16-year-old resident of Hawkins Village, a low-income housing complex in Rankin, Pennsylvania. Gun violence in Hawkins Village has driven Jared to a largely indoor existence in which his anxious energy bursts forth in art and gaming.

Stacy Innerst is an award-winning children’s book artist, painter, and educator.
